It is free and has a small museum where there are live snakes and tortoises, as well as taxidermied wild animals. Behind the center are numerous wild, non-releasable birds in public aviaries, who serve as animal ambassadors for the center. There is a free campground area with picnic tables behind the center, and hiking trails in front of the center. Every Spring/Summer they host free knowledge nights on Wed and Fri from 6-7p in the air conditioned museum area. A cute gift shop is open off and on inside as well.

Since it's inside the mall, it's a perfect home base for a family outing when you need to burn off some energy or entertain several kids at once. - This is a top-tier play space for families. It sets itself apart from the competition with high-quality service and price points that actually make sense for parents. The facility is pristine and clearly well-cared-for, which isn't always the case with these spots. Plus, the mall location is incredibly convenient; it makes it much easier to manage a group of kids while getting other things done nearby.

I'll start with the positive.

The negative. They need to be sanitizing better and more often. I never see the employees cleaning. The foam balls are disgusting and the netting around the play area are visibly dirty. My son has picked up a bug twice from this place and that's even after washing our hands before leaving and bathing when we get home. The first time we thought was a fluke, kids are dirty and great at getting each other sick. We went the second time and the next day and he woke up the next day sick. They also need an age limit. A few times we've gone there have been groups of teenagers running around, playing too rough and hogging play areas.

We also took some cool pictures at the stage that they have. Honestly I had no idea what to expect but my group had such an amazing time. There was 15 of us and we played about 5 games in a span of our 1 hour time slot. Our game master was so great, she had great vibes and was very informative with all of our questions. Either i'm old or out of shape (or a mixture of both) but i was huffing and puffing between the games and I think the timeframe per game was good. The breaks inbetween helped a lot too LOL Can't wait to be back. The missions were really fun!

Thank you Diana for all that you did and I will definitely keep Play and Beyond in mind for my son's second birthday next year!

Diana went above and beyond to help us plan everything out for our daughter party. The decorations were amazing. The pricing and process was grea. The indoor play place is clean, organized and has a smaller room for toddlers to play in. There's lots of parking out front, free coffee for adults. 19.99 for kids (they need to wear non skid socks but you can wear your own or buy some there).

The only reason for the 4 stars is the lack of shade. I swear all parks are designed by people…read morewithout kids. There's a shaded area for eating with 2 picnic tables under it, but that's it. The entire play structure and swings are in the beating sun 100% of the time. Today was a very mild 75 degree early summer day and we went early around 10:45. Within 30 minutes of arrival, the slides were so hot our almost 2 y/o son physically reacted every time he touched them. The park is in a very nice and quiet residential area. There's nothing but street parking, but the streets are wide and not busy. The grounds were very clean and well kept. The bathrooms even had soap AND paper towels - yay! Like others said, this structure is mostly appropriate for a toddler as young as ours. He even did ok on the winding slide. Some slides are so steep that he falls forward even though they're supposed to be geared at toddlers, but all 3 slides here were fine for him. However, the only way to get up are monkey bar-like stairs (skinny metal bars) that no toddler can safely use, then the other side has stairs. The stairs are way too far apart for a young one to do alone. He either had to crawl or we held his hands while he took giant steps lol. If you get bored at this park, there are 2 more within ~5 blocks or less heading west! They're off the same street, too. Just go to the north of the block north of the park and take a left and you'll see 2 others fairly quickly. We'll definitely be back because of how clean and safe it felt.

I appreciated how everything was setup before we arrived, and he would come back to check on us regularly. The party area we had was spacious and there was plenty of room for the kids and adults. The facility is great with a wide variety of different things to do; basketball, dodgeball, trampoline areas, slides and an arcade. We had a wide variety of ages at our party between 5 - 16 and all the kids had fun. The other staff throughout the facility seemed very nice and friendly, amd the place was clean. I highly recommend this place.

Save your money or go toSky Zone or Kids Empire in Covina…read more The facility itself is nice, but the experience was disappointing and not because it appears to be severely understaffed. ?During our visit, there were very few employees visible, and no one seemed to be actively monitoring the trampolines or helping ensure guests were using the equipment safely.) We were also excited to try one of the interactive games, but there were no balls available. After finally tracking down an employee to ask, we were simply told, "There aren't any." It's frustrating when an advertised attraction can't even be used because the necessary equipment isn't available. Most of the employees appeared to be minors, which left me wondering who would respond if someone were seriously injured. Having adult supervisors visibly present would make families feel much more confident about safety. The park has potential, but it really needs better staffing, more visible supervision, and basic maintenance of its attractions. I hope management addresses these issues because they have a nice facility that could offer a much better experience.

WARNING: SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS AT SKY ZONE COVINA…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, but after what I witnessed at Sky Zone Covina on May 9th, I feel parents deserve to be aware of the serious safety concerns and lack of leadership at this location. My daughter and I are members at several trampoline parks due to our involvement in gymnastics, and we have generally had positive experiences elsewhere. When we arrived, we accidentally wore socks from another trampoline park that looked nearly identical to Sky Zone socks. Staff immediately approached us and informed us we needed official Sky Zone socks. That was completely understandable, and we purchased new socks right away without issue. The real concern came shortly afterward. My 6-year-old daughter noticed a teenage boy face down and unresponsive in the foam pit. I called out to him and quickly realized he was not responding and his head was partially buried. I immediately jumped into the foam pit to assist while my elderly father yelled for staff to help and requested someone call 911. What was deeply concerning was the complete lack of urgency from staff and management during what appeared to be a medical emergency. While I struggled alone in the foam pit trying to reposition and support a very large teenager, staff slowly walked over and just stood by. My father repeatedly asked for emergency assistance, yet management appeared more focused on the tone of his concern than the safety of the unconscious guest and took offense when called out on it. Thankfully, the teen eventually regained consciousness, after what seemed to have been a seizure, but the response from management, specifically Teresa, was extremely disappointing. When I later asked for corporate contact information, I was told she "didn't have it." I understand businesses have policies and liability concerns, but basic human compassion and emergency response should never be optional. Parents trust facilities like this with their children's safety, and after this experience, I no longer feel confident bringing my family here. Until Sky Zone Covina improves its emergency response training and leadership standards, I cannot recommend this location.
